jñāninaḥ

आवृतं ज्ञानमेतेन ज्ञानिनो नित्यवैरिणा

jñānam — knowledge

Knowledge is covered by this constant enemy of the wise, son of Kunti — desire, insatiable as fire.

तद्विद्धि प्रणिपातेन परिप्रश्नेन सेवया

jñānam — knowledge

Learn it by bowing down, by asking, by serving. Those who know will teach you.

तेषां ज्ञानी नित्ययुक्त एकभक्ितर्विशिष्यते

jñānī — those who are situated in knowledge

Of these, the one who knows — always steady, devoted to the one thing — stands out. I am dear to that person, and that person is dear to me.
